New singles: Charlotte Church goes electro-goth, have a dance with AlunaGeorge and enjoy Hookworms’ trippy rock

Charlotte Church: Glitterbombed
(Alligator Wine Records)
An electro-goth revamp on this lead track from Welsh choirgirl turned mouthy pop dame’s new EP. There’s no denying the vocal va-va-voom of Church (pictured above) but the song doesn’t quite match her sparkle.

AlunaGeorge: Attracting Flies (Island)
Another sublimely danceable, bitter-sweet corker of a single from this London duo – it should heighten the buzz for AlunaGeorge’s upcoming album.

Hookworms: The Correspondent
(Sonic Cathedral)
Leeds outfit Hookworms ply an alluringly trippy rock groove, which features on the Psych For Sore Eyes EP on this ace indie label. Offbeat and catchy.
